Ye Qiu has been recuperating at my house for half a month, and in the past half a month, Cha Wenbin has gone on a long trip, and I have been facing the person who is silent and can only be in a daze all day long, so I simply gave him a nickname: Dumb No. 2.

Strange to say, the dead dog in our house has been in a daze since he was rescued and saw me and began to walk around again, and when he saw me, he must have his tail between his legs, his ears drooping, and his eyes peeking at you from time to time, and he walked like a kitten, and he had the virtue of a thief's eyebrows. But once he kept what he thought was a safe distance from me, he ran with joy, especially he was very affectionate to Ye Qiu's stupid No. 2, as soon as Ye Qiu appeared in the yard, he immediately wagged his tail and ran to coquettish him, hugging his thighs and licking his tongue, so it wasn't disgusting. Whenever I see such a situation, I will silently lean back on the recliner and scold softly: "Two stupid melons." ”

Aren't you two like a family, that's okay, I'll call you Dull No. 2 in the future, and then I'll be embarrassed, so I'll just call him No. 2. Ye Qiu is a person, he doesn't care at all how you mess with him, in fact, in his eyes, except for the dog, everything else in our family is air.

"No. 2 is eating!" "Number two, laugh one." "Two, where is your hometown?" "Number two, are you really fucking two......" During the time I was ignored, I also tried to please Dully One, I really went to get Huahua back, but this person is sometimes cheaper than a dog, I please it so much, but it still avoids me. Such boring and funny days have been going on for half a month, and there are a lot of people who come to Cha Wenbin in those days, and they have all been sent away one by one. My mother looked at the various gifts in the house and said with a smile: "This family is about to become a Taoist temple, why are you sending so many things?" ”

I said, "Aren't you just going to build a house, don't do any tricks in the house, just make a Taoist temple, and call it "Tianzheng Taoist Temple" under the whole name." After finishing the work, go get a few clay statues and put them in the middle, your old man will be a Lafayette at home, I will go out to take orders and run business, anyway, Wen Bin is half your son if he stays in our house, and it is also appropriate to earn some incense money to subsidize the family. ”

As soon as my father entered the door, he listened to me talking nonsense, and a meal of chestnuts fell on my head and scolded: "Subsidy! Subsidy! I don't know if it's good all day, did you steal the human back? ”

Half a month later, Cha Wenbin came back, and the news he brought back was still very disappointing, he didn't find Long Ye, nor did he find Hurricane, those people seemed to have suddenly evaporated from the world. April is the busy season for farming, planting seedlings, removing insects, and one more important thing is repairing canals.

In the early fifties, we built a reservoir in Hongcun and named it "Hongfeng". Hongfeng Reservoir is not big, when I was studying, the teacher wanted to take the students out for a spring outing, basically the schools in the three surrounding villages will choose to go there, because on both sides of the road to Hongfeng Reservoir, there are cliffs, strange stone waterfalls can be seen everywhere, and the scenery is really good.

It is said that when the reservoir was built, there were people who died, and I heard from the older generation that there was a stonemason who was stone-fired to death by falling stones, and then this person was not found out at all, because one had to rush the construction deadline, and the other was that the landslide was too bad, and it was difficult to turn the falling rocks by manpower alone. So the stonemason was permanently buried under the dam of the reservoir, and his descendants go there every year to pay their respects.

The Hongfeng Reservoir is used to store water for power generation, and when the farming season is busy, the sluice gates are opened to release water, and a canal winds its way from the dam down the mountains to the river channel of the village below. The river on our side is very narrow, just an ordinary mountain stream, and a barrage is built every kilometer or so in the creek, and a hole is made in the dam to divert water to the nearby farmland for irrigation.

I remember that there was a shortage of water in the fields, but there was no water in the reservoirs. There are two main reasons, the main channel on the other side of the reservoir is blocked, and the design of this thing is that the last section of the canal is about 100 meters high on the mountainside, where a large reservoir will be formed, and there is a thick pipe through this pool that leads straight to the river at the foot of the mountain, so that the water can have a huge impact on the water. At the foot of the hill there is a power station, which depends on this flow of water, and where it is blocked, is the pipe that falls into the water.

Another reason is that it was a particularly dry year, and the water in the river has not been able to come up, and there has not been a drop of rain in the whole Hongcun since the beginning of the year, so it is very tense to catch up with such a peak of agricultural water use. So at that time, the production team held a meeting and needed two groups of people, one group was responsible for repairing the reservoir channel, which had not been repaired for decades, and the other group was responsible for digging wells and pumping water.

Looking at the harvest of the first year in the countryside, no one can be sloppy or slack, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and the water to eat the water.

At that time, our family was in a team, and in accordance with the principle of fairness, the production team decided to send labor according to the size of the family. Because my hukou is in my hometown, it stands to reason that our family has to get three jobs a day, and it just so happens that there are three big idlers in my family, I Cha Wenbin and that Yeqiu No. 2. As soon as I thought about it, this kind of thing is to grind foreign workers anyway, and no one can do anything to work, so it is good to get to the field, so I discussed with my father, and we will repair the canal, and he is busy with other things.

When it comes to repairing the canal, I don't have to mention that the Hongfeng Reservoir has to walk four miles in the big temple, which is purely a no-man's land where birds don't. That morning, the production team gathered more than 30 laborers and set off together, and we also took hoes and shovels and followed together to pretend.

When I arrived at the cistern, the depth of the water was about two meters, and the pipe was half exposed to the ground and half buried in the ground and closed with cement. No one expected that later, a person was really found in this tube, and he didn't dare to drink water for half a month.

First, the upstream reservoir was closed, and then the water in the reservoir was drained with a pump, and it took half a day to work on this piece, and the water in the canal was full of fish, and that morning I was basically immersed in the fun of catching fish. Anyway, the two of them looked at the scenery like wood, and the water dried up completely just after lunch, revealing the entrance of the drainage pipe, and many dead branches and rotten leaves were all blocked.

Originally, I thought that there was a garbage blockage, but in fact, I just need to clean up the silt in the canal from top to bottom, and then fill the cracks. The entrance of the drainage pipe was originally designed with a steel mesh, the function is to intercept a large piece of garbage into the pipe, but when the surface of the layer of silt and rotten branches and leaves was lifted, it was found that the steel mesh at the mouth of the pipe has long been gone, and it is estimated that it has been soaked in water for decades and has long been rotten.

In this way, the complexity of the situation is more than imagined, it is the same thing as the sewer at home is blocked, you don't know which section is blocked, we have the longest guy in our hands at the time is just a hoe, and there is no more trick to dig more than a meter into it, but it seems that there are really a lot of things here.

I don't remember who was the first to pull out the broken jar from it, it looked like a night pot, and after a little cleaning with water, I found that the mouth of the jar was still sealed, and there was a piece of paper on it that I couldn't see what it was.

Some people joked that it was wine, and most of the workers were as big as us, so it was naturally lively together, since it was wine, why did you keep it, open it and drink it!

In this way, without any equipment, the seal of this jar was smashed open with a stone, and I still remember who it was, surnamed Wei, called Wei Damao, three or two times higher than me. According to the current statement, this guy is a rural non-mainstream, with hair similar to the current host Li Yong, draped in big waves, and running around with a tape recorder on his shoulder in bell bottoms all day long.

Wei Damao is definitely an avant-garde person, usually this kind of person is very bold, no, in fact, he is very ignorant. So he put his hand into the tube, and under the watchful eyes of a man, the guy took it out of the jar for a while and looked at it, and his hands were covered with a layer of white powder.

I looked at him and shouted in a mysterious way, "What's in there, big hair, is there a bunch of golden lumps in it?" ”

The grandson's greatest characteristic is that he is avant-garde, so he said to me, "There is no gold, but I wonder if the thing here will be 'white flour'." The white flour he was talking about was not flour, but something else: drugs. He said this not entirely unreasonable, not long after the reform and opening up, everything came to China, including heroin. At that time, there was a saying that some people smuggled these things from the sea and then transported them to the mainland, saying that if they caught this thing, they would lose their heads, so the transportation link was generally based on small roads. Hongcun is located in the intersection of three counties of Zhejiang and Anhui provinces, the geographical location is remote but the traffic is very convenient, there is a rumor in the society at that time that someone walks here in the mountains and forests to bring goods.

I coaxed: "You don't know if it's white noodles, you know if it's white, your big brother is well-informed." ”

How did he know that this grandson really stuffed his finger into his mouth, he squinted his eyes and said after a while: "It's not tasteful, I can't taste it." ”

At this time, No. 2, who had been in a daze, said a word coldly, and the audience was instantly stunned, and he was alone and said to himself: "What can the ashes taste like......?"

Say:

Ticket ...... Stone me
